Senator Lindsey Graham made headlines this week when he said he hopes President Trump runs for a third term in 2028. His exact words were, “Trump 2028. I hope this never ends.” That’s a strong statement of support, and it shows just how much some leaders believe in President Trump’s policies and leadership. But it also raises a big question: Can a president serve more than two terms?
The U.S. Constitution says no, at least right now. The 22nd Amendment, ratified in 1951, sets a two-term limit for the presidency. It was passed after President Franklin D. Roosevelt was elected four times. Many Americans at that time thought no one person should hold that much power for so long. So they changed the rules to limit future presidents.
However, the Constitution is not set in stone. It has been amended before, 27 times in fact. That’s the beauty of our founding document. It is strong and enduring, but it also allows for change when the people demand it. If Americans today believe a leader like President Trump should be allowed to serve more than two terms, they have the legal and constitutional path to make it happen: amend the Constitution again.
People who say this can’t be done are missing the point. The Constitution belongs to the people, not to Washington insiders or legacy media elites. If the people want President Trump to run again in 2028, they have every right to pursue that through the lawful process. That’s not disrespecting the Constitution. That’s using the Constitution exactly as it was designed—to protect liberty and respond to the will of the people.
Senator Graham’s comments were made during a discussion about foreign policy. He praised President Trump’s efforts to keep peace in Europe while standing firm against Russian aggression. Trump is doing what a good president should: avoiding war, protecting allies, and putting America first. That’s the kind of leadership that earns long-lasting support. It’s no wonder Senator Graham, and millions of Americans, want that leadership to continue.
Some critics will say that wanting a third term for Trump is dangerous or undemocratic. But what’s truly undemocratic is ignoring the will of the people. If Americans want President Trump to continue leading beyond 2028, and if they follow the legal steps to make that happen, that’s not tyranny—it’s democracy in action.
The truth is, President Trump is not like other politicians. He doesn’t play games. He doesn’t bow to the global elites. He stands up for American workers, protects our borders, and demands peace through strength. That kind of leadership is rare, and it’s why so many people believe two terms may not be enough.
Of course, the road to a third term would not be easy. It would take a constitutional amendment, which requires support from two-thirds of Congress and three-fourths of the states. That’s a high bar, and rightly so. But high bars don’t mean impossible goals. They just mean the people must speak clearly and loudly.
This moment is not just about one man. It’s about whether the American people still have the power to shape their own future. The founders gave us the tools to amend the Constitution. They trusted future generations to use those tools wisely. If Americans today believe President Trump should serve again in 2028, then it is their right—and duty—to pursue that goal through legal and constitutional means.
In the end, it’s not about breaking the rules. It’s about following the rules that were made to protect freedom. And if the people decide that Trump’s leadership is what America needs, they have every right to make their voices heard.
Let the people decide. Let the Constitution work. And let freedom lead the way.
